Here's an opportunity to participate/be part of the discussion!

What do you think the best answer to the mind-body problem is? What is the relationship between the mind and the body? Do you think they are separate entities? Why does this matter when it comes to psychology?

Goal: Push the class to think critically or even push me to think in new ways and learn new content!

Incorrect or insubstantial comments will not count towards fulfilling your participation requirement. Remember you must participate 5-15 times this semester depending on the format. Attempting to participate is encouraged regardless of the quality. Trying and struggling is better than not trying at all.

What's my idea of what an excellent discussion posting is? A posting that is 250 words+ and integrates a reputable source and therefore facts (when possible), meaning the posting is grounded in more than just your own personal opinion. .Edu and .gov are considered to be reputable websites. Peer-reviewed journals are the gold standard when it comes to sources. Not all A level postings include a source. Some reach the quality level without them. Sources are just always an easy way to bump up the quality. Additionally, each posting should be accompanied by one substantial response to your peers. Think- "really carry on the conversation." Don't just give empty responses, unless you are just being kind (kindness is always encouraged!), but simple "that's a great point" type comments won't receive credit.

I hope y'all teach me ways of thinking I don't know! :)
